The Dodson book 1600-1907 has some records that the Lucas book dosnt have. The Lucas book pretty well stays with the Descendabts of Charles Dodson and the 1600 book also list the Pennsylvania, New Jersey and Maryland Branches of Dodson's that were From Knaresborough, Yorkshire England. While these Dodson 's could have been linked to Charles Dodson no one has ever done so to my knowledge. 1 Daniel and Susanne Dodson Children 2 John Dodson, b.

Oct.19th 1669 The Burlington Records, New Jersey, furnished the names of the three who came in 1677 with other Quaker settlers to their ;new settlement, and stated Yorkshire as the place of their English home. This fact gave the clue for research in England. The fact that they were Quakers limited the search somewhat to the Society of Friends, and their various places of meeting, as well as to the Parish Records of the English Church in the vicinity of Friends meetings. It is worthy of note that the only Dodson names, found by expert research in any Friends' Meeting Records, were in this one of Knaresborough: and while Dodson names were found in the Parish Records, both before and after the time of this partgicular family, none of the above names were found in them. The friends record as given was beaautifully kept and well preserved, and it is a matter of regret that the expert searcher was so rejoiced to find the names of the News Jersey three, that the exact birth dates of all the others of the family were not taken. There may seem to be a difficulty in reconciling the fact that Mary and Thomas were so young at the time of their coming to New Jersey in 1677. This may be explained as follows: The parents of these brothers and sister may have died, and John, the oldest son, was responsible for the care of this youngest brother and sister. Besides this, a reference in the Town Annals of Burlington show that the Buntings were related to the Dodsons, in whose company they came, and it is very probable that the wife of John was one of this family, as no record of his marriage is found there, except that he had children. Mary and Thomas, therefore, had care-takers during the period of their youth. This was taken from the 1600-1907 book. Russell Dodson
